Method
Dry roast sooji well in a kadai. Since I had bought double roasted sooji, I skipped this
step.
Heat a tbsp of oil and add mustard, when it sizzles add urad dal, red chillies, asafoetida
and curry leaves.
Then add onions and sauté till it becomes transparent. Add ginger, green chillies, tomato
and sauté a little. Add all the vegetables and cook for a few minutes. (Do not over cook)
Add 2 cups of water needed salt and bring it to boil. When water starts boiling, add ½
tsp of ghee.
Add the sooji/ravai gradually to the boiling water stirring, so that it does not form lumps.
Cover it and cook on low flames till done. Garnish it with coriander leaves.
Serve it with any chutney of your choice.
Tomato chutney
Coriander chutney
Coconut chutney
